House in Sakuragaoka

Outline
The interior consists of skip floors with four floor levels. The large openings overlooking the garden and terraces, the thin slabs separated by H-steel, and the different textures of materials on each floor are characteristic features of the building, giving it a unique sense of floating. The ready-made tempera-lite doors used in the large openings enable a slender sash, since the glass itself bears the sash rigidity and wind resistance pressure.
